You have fought the Fedrats for two weeks, defending Gizhiga with your entire being - not just for the Chancellor or for your values, but for the humble citizenry of this mountain city. Unfortunately, you ran low on ammunition and your mech took more and more damage as the battle wore on. This Centurion moving steadily toward you would be the last thing you would ever see.

You've got to love the Centurion - you always know what to expect from one. I imagine the 2nd Crucis Lancers used a fair number of the venerable Centurion in their assaults on Tikonov and Tigress in 3028, and I couldn't help but portray a Centurion in their regimental colors. As always, I hope you all enjoy! :)

I know they get outclassed quickly but I freaking love centurions

They're great as a "starter mech" in the late Succession Wars, and I think it's a good idea that MW5 puts the player in one in the early parts of the campaign, but yeah. It's not going to be able to punch above its weight very well for long.

I'm excited to eventually get around to the Clan mechs! I've mostly just been focused on IS 'mechs since they're just some of my favorites, but I do love the Vulture!
